Through her bestselling books, groundbreaking PBS specials, and up-to-the-minute clinical knowledge, DR. CHRISTIANE NORTHRUP has earned a place as one of America’s most trusted medical advisors. In The Wisdom of Menopause , she once again challenges convention with this inspiring look at one of the most commonly misunderstood female health issues. The “change” is not simply a collection of physical symptoms to be “fixed,” DR. NORTHRUP claims, but a mind/body revolution that brings the greatest opportunity for growth since adolescence. The choices a woman makes now–from the quality of her relationships to the quality of her diet–have the power to secure her health and well-being for the rest of her life. Through her personal story and many fascinating case histories, Dr. Northrup shows: • How menopause jump-starts changes in the brain, issuing a dramatic wake-up call to body, mind, and emotions • How to ensure the long-term health of breasts, bones, and heart • How the body adjusts naturally to changing hormones • Why bestselling drugs like Premarin may not be the best choice • How to deal with metabolism shifts, weight gain, sexual problems, and appearance issues • How to negotiate the challenges of “the empty nest” and midlife marriage And much more. In a book destined to be a classic, DR. NORTHRUP shows women how they can make menopause a time of personal empowerment and positive energy–emerging wiser, healthier, and stronger in both mind and body than ever before.
